Taylors Road, Keilor Downs Pedestrian Safety Improvements

We’ve improved pedestrian safety at three intersections along Taylors Road in Keilor Downs.

Project status:

Complete

Update - September 2026

We’ve improved pedestrian safety at three intersections along Taylors Road in Keilor Downs:

  • At Carbine Way.
  • The entrance to Keilor Central near the Brimbank Aquatic and Wellness Centre.
  • The eastern signalised entrance to Keilor Central.

Works to upgrade two streetlights at the eastern signalised entrance to Keilor Central will be completed by the power company.

You may see crews on-site to complete minor finishing works.

What we’ve done

Carbine Way

  • We've made changes to the traffic lights so that pedestrians crossing Taylors Road cross at separate times to drivers turning right from Carbine Way.
  • We’ve also provided a head start for pedestrians crossing Carbine Way.
  • The ‘Give Way to Pedestrians’ sign has been relocated.

Keilor Central entrance near the Brimbank Aquatic and Wellness Centre

  • We've provided a pedestrian head start at this intersection.

Keilor Central entrance at the eastern signalised access

  • We installed a raised zebra crossing on the slip lane from Taylors Road to the entrance of Keilor Central.
  • We’ve changed the traffic light operation so that the left turn out of Keilor Central is fully controlled and pedestrians cross at separate times to drivers.
  • We’ve extended the pedestrian fencing and change line marking to reconfigure the lanes out of Keilor Central.
  • We’re also upgrading two streetlights. These works will be completed by the power company. 

Why we’ve done it

These upgrades have improved pedestrian safety at the three intersections along Taylors Road.

They have also provided safer access for pedestrians and vulnerable road users crossing Taylors Road to access facilities and businesses, including bus stops, Keilor Central and Brimbank Aquatic and Wellness Centre.
